Smart Money Signals — EQ

Based on 49 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added EQ than sold it. That's a consistent pattern of professional buying — not a one-time trade. When institutions keep buying quarter after quarter, it usually means they see a multi-year opportunity, not just a short-term momentum flip.

🏔️

At the ownership peak (100% of max)

100% of all-time peak

49 hedge funds hold EQ right now — the highest count in 3.0 years. When ownership is this concentrated, any bad news can trigger a chain reaction: one big fund sells, others follow. This is a classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.

🚀

Fast accumulation — +123% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+27 new funds entered over the past year (+123% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.

🟢

More buyers than sellers — 61% buying

28 buying18 selling

Last quarter: 28 funds were net buyers (17 opened a brand new position + 11 added to an existing one). Only 18 were sellers (12 trimmed + 6 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.

📈

More new buyers each quarter (+11 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening a new EQ position: 7 → 22 → 6 → 17. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.

📌

Mixed — 31% long-term, 53% new

■ 31% conviction (2yr+) ■ 16% medium ■ 53% new

Of the 49 current holders: 15 (31%) held >2 years, 8 held 1–2 years, and 26 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.

💎

Buying through price weakness — shares +12%, value -65%

Value

-65%

+12%

Last quarter: funds added +12% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -65%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

2 → 7 → 22 → 6 → 17 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 7 → 22 → 6 → 17. EQ is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 46% veterans vs 46% newcomers

■ 46% veterans ■ 8% 1-2yr ■ 46% new

Entry-cohort mix of 52 holders: 24 (46%) are 2+ year veterans, 4 entered 1–2 years ago, and 24 (46%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

📋

Smaller funds dominant — 19% AUM from top-100

19% from top-100 AUM funds

15 of 49 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 19% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

5.2

out of 10

Moderate Exit Risk

Exit risk score 5.2/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.

Methodology note: these Smart Money cards use consecutive 13F disclosure snapshots, not trade-by-trade execution data. "Buying", "selling", "new holders", and "trimmed" refer to quarter-over-quarter changes in reported holders, aggregate shares, or disclosed position values between filings. They are useful for ownership regime analysis and crowding, but they do not imply exact trade timing on the filing date.
